卻說荊州刺史劉表，字景升，山陽高平人也：乃漢室宗親；幼好結納，與名士七人為友，時號「江夏八俊」。那七人：一一汝南陳翔，字仲麟；同郡范滂，字孟博；魯國孔昱，字世元；渤海范康，字仲真；山陽檀敷，字文友；同郡張儉，字元節；南陽岑晊，字公孝。劉表與此七人為友；有延平人蒯良、蒯越，襄陽人蔡瑁為輔。當時看了袁紹書，隨令蒯越、蔡瑁引兵一萬來截孫堅。

On the way home, Sun Jian was passing through Jingzhou Region. The Imperial Protector of Jingzhou, Liu Biao, was a scion of the imperial house and a native of Shanyang. As a young man he had made friends with many famous people, and he and his companions were called the Eight Wise Ones. The other seven were: Chen Xiang from Runan, styled Zhong Lin; Fan Pang from Runan, styled Meng Bo; Kong Yu from Luting, styled Shi Yuan; Fan Kang from Bohai, styled Zhong Zhen; Tan Fu from Shanyang, styled Wen You; Zhang Jian from Shanyang, styled Yuan Jie; and Cen Zhi from Nanyang, styled Gong Xiao. Liu Biao was friends with all seven of them. He had three famous persons who helped him in the government of his region. They were Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue from Yanping, and Cai Mao from Xiangyang. When Yuan Shao's letter detailing the fault of Sun Jian arrived, Liu Biao ordered Kuai Yue and Cai Mao with ten thousand soldiers to bar the way.
